    KVM: x86/pmu: Add pmc->intr to refactor kvm_perf_overflow{_intr}() · 40ccb96d
    Like Xu authored
    Depending on whether intr should be triggered or not, KVM registers
    two different event overflow callbacks in the perf_event context.
    
    The code skeleton of these two functions is very similar, so
    the pmc->intr can be stored into pmc from pmc_reprogram_counter()
    which provides smaller instructions footprint against the
    u-architecture branch predictor.
    
    The __kvm_perf_overflow() can be called in non-nmi contexts
    and a flag is needed to distinguish the caller context and thus
    avoid a check on kvm_is_in_guest(), otherwise we might get
    warnings from suspicious RCU or check_preemption_disabled().
